When I was turning 21, I was like, ‘Damn, I’ve been partying like crazy since I was 17…’ I was like, ‘Wow, maybe I should take a break.’ So I stopped doing all that, and I found that a lot of problems I was having in my life, slowly, they didn’t go away: they just became way more apparent to me.

So it’s a very odd experience.

Sex without love is a meaningless experience, but as far as meaningless experiences go its pretty damn good.

Shoot, man, I loved being a damn heel. Something about that, just going out there and being the most despicable person you could ever be, was a real turn-on for me. And I grew up a real shy kid in south Texas, and it was something for me to lean on and have fun with.
DWYCK’ was only intended to be a B-side of ‘Take It Personal,’ because we had done a record with Nice & Smooth for their album, Ain’t a Damn Thing Changed, called ‘Down The Line.’ They were returning the favor with ‘DWYCK,’ being that we let them borrow the ‘Manifest’ instrumental.
